I hope you are all having a great week and that fall is already warming your hearts 🙂 I’m not sure if y’all know but for the past two weeks I’ve been traveling through the Deep South in the United States, and I’m amazed with all the fall colors and decorations.

I started my trip in Miami, went down to the Florida Keys and then up to New Orleans and finally Tennessee where I had the most wonderful host anyone could ever have!!! It’s because of her that I’m publishing this post today, it is her birthday and I would like to ask you all to join me in wishing Elizabeth Adams a happy birthday!!!

While I was staying with her I learned a lot about the United States culture and even more about the southern ways, I visited lots of interesting places and I got a collection of signed paperbacks!!!

If you’ve been following my blog you know I love paperbacks, especially when they are signed, I love all the benefits of ebooks but who can resist an old fashioned paperback to put in the library?

My love for paperbacks inspired Elizabeth and to celebrate her birthday she is offering one signed copy of each of her books to her readers. This means that 6 different readers will get a chance to win one of her books, isn’t that a great idea?

Which one would you prefer to receive? Let us know in the comments your order of preference and why you’ve chosen that order. The giveaway winners will be randomly selected and the prizes will be attributed as in a lottery, meaning if you are the first name to be choosen you will have a chance to select any of the 6 books Elizabeth has published. If you are second you will have to select between the 5 remaining and so on, so it is important that you state all the books in your order of preference.

Your comment will gain you an entry in the giveaway and the winners will be announced in the beginning of November 🙂

If you want more chances to win a signed paperback share this post on any social media and let us know about it, we will consider that as an extra entry 🙂

As you can see from this picture Elizabeth is really happy to sign the paperbacks and offer them to you 😉 But if you are not sure about which book you would prefer, here is the list of all her published books with a small blurb for you to know what to expect 🙂

When Georgiana Darcy comes to Netherfield to visit her brother, she becomes friends with a neighbor, Elizabeth Bennet. After Miss Darcy has returned to London, she invites her new friend to stay with her at the Darcy home in town … unbeknownst to Mr. Darcy.

Mr. Bennet discovers his days are numbered, so he immediately begins to set his affairs — and his five unmarried daughters — in order. Knowing they will fare best should at least one of them find a suitable husband, he cannot refuse any respectable suitors.

The high-spirited Elizabeth suspects something isn’t right in the halls of Longbourn, but nothing prepares her for a certain haughty gentleman from Derbyshire. While Mr. Darcy is exceedingly wealthy and handsome, in Elizabeth’s opinion, he is also proud, high-handed, and insulting. And unfortunately, desperately in love with her.

Suddenly, Elizabeth is forced to rethink her previous opinions. And accept a choice she never had the chance to make.

What becomes of Longbourn when the Collins family inherits? How does Charlotte manage both her husband and an estate? Can she truly become the mistress of Longbourn while living in Mrs. Bennet’s shadow?

Caroline Bingley learns there’s more to life than chasing after Darcy. Can she find true affection? How will she live down the humiliation of being passed over?

Mrs. Bennet makes a shocking discovery and her family must deal with the consequences.

Elizabeth navigates a situation she never thought she would find herself in, and in so doing, she learns more than she bargained for. Disturbingly more.

A jaded and mature Lydia finally grows up, but is the price she pays worth the wisdom she gains?

In this collection of six short stories, the people of Pride and Prejudice move on, grow up, and explore paths not taken. Time leads these beloved characters down roads of self-discovery, courage, and heartbreak. And sometimes, the journey takes them to surprising places.

William Harper has it all: looks, money, power. There’s just one tiny problem—he’s about to be deported. He needs a green card. Fast. An American wife is the easiest way to get one. But where will he find a woman to marry him on such short notice?

Elizabeth Barrett is a full-time student, part-time dog walker, and weekend tutor. With a roommate who just ran out on her and neck deep in tuition payments, she needs money. Now. Harper just might make her an offer she can’t refuse.

He thinks he’s worked out the perfect deal, she thinks she’s signed up for an easy job. Neither of them bargained for the ride of their lives.

Oh, and yes, that’s me with all the paperbacks I got :)))) Look at the smile on my face :))

Happy Birthday, Elizabeth! You DO realize you’re supposed to RECEIVE gifts on your special day and not GIVE them, right? 😉
Thank you so much for your generosity. I’ve read and loved your books, but my absolute favorite is “On Equal Ground”. It’s one of my all-time favorite JAFF books. If I were able to win a signed copy, I would be all verklempt!

Thanks, Pam! It’s actually a Ukrainian custom to treat others on your birthday. They may also bring you a gift, but you take everyone out and buy dinner and do a big celebration. In that spirit, I’ve started doing some sort of giveaway every year on this day.

Have a wonderful Birthday and have fun! October is a great birthday month as it’s in the fall … my favourite season! Thanks for a chance at winning your books which are bloody good to read! I love them… but only have them on kindle… so this would be very very cool for me! Best wishes and thanks -Ruth

I think I recently downloaded most of these in audiobook—not GreenCard because I own that one in paperback. All of these would make a lovely addition to my book shelves! :)))) Have been enjoying your photos of your trek across the South!

Happy birthday Elizabeth!! Thank you for the generous giveaway! I’d love to win a copy of On Equal Grounds or the 26th November! Green Cards was one of my favourite JAFFs and I have the others on my kindle 🙂

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! October is a beautiful month with all the fall colours and crisp cool air! There is nothing like a lovely walk admiring nature and when the sun is shining, it just sparkles!

What a fabulous trip you are having Rita and what a fabulous giveaway! I too love my paperbacks and have a shelf just for ones that have been signed, small, but worthy shelf! As to which order, now that is making it tough to decide…have all but one of the books (e-books)…so here goes!
1. The 26th of November (because I don’t have this one…yet)
2. On Equal Ground (because I absolutely loved the dual marriages)
3. Unwilling (because I absolutely loved this one too and is a close contender to #2)
4. Houseguest (because it was the first book I ever read from Elizabeth and loved)
5. Green Card (I have this one on my Kindle but haven’t read it…yet!)
6. Meryton Vignettes (because all the others are so much longer!)

What a fabulous idea! I love every single one of Elizabeth Adam’s books but my absolute favorite is “Green Card”, then “On Equal Ground”, “The Houseguest”, “November 26th”, etc. But truly, if I won any of them I’d be thankful and happy! Thank you Elizabeth for your generosity and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!🎂

Wishing you a very Happy Birthday, Elizabeth, and many more of the same!

Sorry you didn’t make it to South Carolina while you were in the Southlands, Rita, but glad to hear that you had a good trip. We have also enjoyed Tennessee each time we’ve visited.

Thank you for your generous giveaway, esp inasmuch as while I love my kindle I much prefer print books. When I was a kid our family had a tradition that *we* gave out presents on our birthdays. I’ve already read Green Card recently (a don’t-miss read) and Unwilling (some years ago). I would love a signed print copy of Green Card for when I re-read it, altho’ any of the other four would be terrific, with 26th of November my pick for next on my Must-Read list. With all best regards – JPB

Happy Birthday!! I love your books. Unfortunately, most I have are ebooks, though my preference is definitely paperbacks! I’d love to win!
Unwilling- have not yet read
On Equal Ground- have not yet read
Green Card- I loved this one!
The 26th of November- another fantastic read!
The Househuest- loved it!
Meryton Vignettes- I wish some of these were so much longer!

I loved THE HOUSEGUEST when you posted it on AHA but somehow I missed the announcement that it had been published. When I happened upon it by accident, I bought the kindle version and it has become one of my favorites that a re-read often. I last read it a few weeks ago but I’d love to have a signed copy to pick up whenever I wished.

Happy birthday, Elizabeth! Are you perhaps a hobbit, giving away presents on your birthday! It’s so sweet of you to have this giveaway.

Oh, I would love to win this! I love Elizabeth Adams’ books!

My first choice would be Green Card, an all-time favorite and one I reread regularly. Second would be the 26th of November, a newer book but I really loved it. Houseguest 3rd… would it get boring if I said it’s a favorite, too? Then On Equal Ground, Meryton Vignettes, and poor Unwilling only in last place because I already own the paperback.

My order would be
On Equal Ground (#1 because I adore it)
Meryton Vignettes ( I really want to read this one)
The Houseguest ( Another great story love it on Audible)
Unwilling (Have not read yet)
The 26th of November ( Short but Sweet)
Green Card (Another I have not read)
Thanks for the great giveaway.

Happy Birthday, Elizabeth!
I’ve read 2 of the titles and would be honoured to win one of them!
1) The Houseguest
2) Green Card
3) On Equal Ground
4) Unwilling
5) The 26th of November
6) Meryton Vignettes

Happy Birthday Elizabeth. What a generous giveaway. If choosing based on my favouites, my first choice woukd have to be On Equal Ground, I have it on my kindle and in audio formst, but the paperback would be a great addition. My second choice is The 26th of November, followed by Green Card. To win any of them would be lovely.

What a generous giveaway From Elizabeth, especially when it’s her Birthday. It’s mine next week but unfortunately I haven’t written any books to give away 😦
I think you are exceptionally good to offer these to your readers Rita, it must have been tempting to keep them and say nothing 🙂
I have the paperback of Houseguest as it was one of the first I bought (before I got my kindle)
So, if I’m lucky enough to win I would choose the others in this order:
1. The 26th of November
2. Green Card
3. On Equal Ground
4. Unwilling
5. Meryton Vignettes
I have read and loved them all but signed copies are such a treat so thanks to both of you for the opportunity.

Love your stories and have read 4, but would love to have a “real book”, especially signed by the Author, so here is my Wish List:
1. On Equal Ground
2. The 26th of November
3. Unwilling
4. Green Card
5. The Houseguest
6. Meryton Vignettes
thanks for the chance to win!

Happy Birthday Elizabeth, hope you have a wonderful time celebrating! I love reading all your stories, you have a wonderful talent for writing JAFF/P&P stories. Please keep on writing so you can satisfy our P&P obsession.

Happy birthday! I may be late for 2018, but perhaps I’m first for next year’s birthday. I have not heard of your books, so I’m sure any would be a treat and a surprise, but to me Meryton Vingnettes is the most intriguing.

What a wonderful way to celebrate the day of your birth. I love your stories. Thank you for being so generous.
1.Unwilling
2. On Equal Ground

Fabulous post! So glad you had a great time together, lovely ladies, and hope you had a smashing time on your birthday, Elizabeth! Wow, what a generous giveaway, and so interesting to hear about this great Ukrainian custom! Please don’t enter me, I have almost all your books in paperback already and it would be great to see other people win this jackpot. Just wanted to pop by to leave some love for you and your great books. Have a fabulous autumn and lots of inspiration! ❤

Happy Birthday! Thank you for the giveaway. I have all 6 in ebook, audio or both so would love any in paperback.

They are continuing! We always celebrate late because my daughter’s birthday is just before mine and there is fall break and Halloween, so it gets a little crazy. Time with the man over the weekend, family dinner tonight, out with the girls next weekend. I’m excited!
